100th Post: What I learned from blogging random wisdom

When I started this blog or idea pad, whatever you want to call it, I didn’t know how long I would keep going. My intention was simply to have a place for these random ideas I have regularly. I’m a thinker. I see things, have ideas and opinions, and keep them to myself most of the time. One day I decided to share those thoughts with…myself mainly. I started this blog as an idea journal for myself, and if anyone stumbled upon on it, fine.

So what has it done for me so far?

  • I am more aware of my ideas. When an idea crosses my mind I pay more attention to it, because it might be something that I want to share.
  • I get better at expressing my thoughts and ideas, in writing but also in conversation.
  • I try my productivity ideas on myself and as a result I have improved significantly. It also helps me refine my ideas.
  • I like to read my own ideas. If I go to http://randomwisdom.tumblr.com/random I get a random post and it’s always fun to see what I wrote. Sometimes it’s something I had already forgotten. Other times it’s something I’m actively using at that moment.
  • It’s a great practice for writing. I used to hate writing, but now it has become more fun. I’m still finding my voice, so to speak, but I’m getting there step by step.

Well, on to next 100 posts!
